As single women, we often get so fixated on marriage and relationships that we forget to live in the present. I’m guilty of this myself and still learning, but that’s no reason not to embrace the now. I’m not going to list all the reasons you should be content with being single—truth is, I’m not always content either. But since we’re here, why not enjoy this season to the fullest?
Build Your Relationship with God
This is advice I hear a lot from married women, and it’s easy to overlook because it seems so cliché—especially if you already feel like you have a relationship with God. But what they’re really saying is this: your attention will likely become divided when you get married, and especially when you have kids. Appreciate this time now. Take advantage of those slow, undisturbed Bible studies and long, peaceful prayer times.
All in all, be anchored in God so you can endure the hardships life throws at you, not just the challenges of relationships. We often forget about God once we get what we want. But whether single or not, life has its ups and downs, and we need God’s wisdom to navigate it all.
Build a Consistent Workout Routine
I’ve heard it said, “Do the workout you’ll actually do.” You don’t have to follow what everyone else is doing. You can take two approaches:
1.Do the workout that feels best to you and stick with it.
2. Do workouts that align with your goals and be disciplined. For example, if you want to get stronger, lift weights.
Staying consistent with a workout routine is a form of self-care, and as women, we often neglect that. As a single woman, building this habit before having a family can help you become the best version of yourself for both you and your future partner.

Try New Hobbies
I’m a mini perfectionist, so I tend to want to master things quickly—maybe a little impatient, too. But I’m learning to see things differently.
I see it as I’m chasing dopamine, haha.
Life has more to offer than seeking validation online or endlessly scrolling through social media. Find something else that brings you joy. Try hiking, roller skating, journaling, crocheting—anything! And if you don’t enjoy one thing, keep trying until you find something you love.
Are you planning to make a man your entire personality? Thought so! Have something you enjoy doing on your own, in your free time—something for you. You feel me? Alright then.
Travel
There’s something deeply enriching about exploring new places, cultures, and experiences. As a single woman, you have the freedom to go where you want, when you want, without having to accommodate anyone else’s schedule.
Whether it’s a solo trip to a new city or a group adventure with friends, travel can open your eyes to new perspectives and give you stories that will last a lifetime. Plus, it’s a great way to make memories that are just yours.
So, book that trip you’ve been thinking about—whether it’s to another country or just a weekend getaway. The world is waiting, and you deserve to see it!
Alright girl, go out there and be great. Remember: gratitude is the enemy of discontent, so be grateful for where you are… lol, don’t roll your eyes at me. Yeah, yeah, I know you’ve heard it way too many times. But are you practicing it? Mm-hmm, okay.
